A love like this....

Who knew one could love a picture sooooo much? It is amazing how much I love the little guy in our one and only picture. For never meeting him....he has stolen my heart. I can't wait to give him loves and hold him in my arms. We are still patiently waiting for our court date. :)

We love sharing this with you! We are trying not to pester you with questions. We know you share everything you can with us. But B is still thinking about his name.
